I have a 180degree thermostat. Maybe I'll go to the 160.
Do you have to use the old style thermostat or can I use one of the newer types ? Paid a lot for the original style.


You should be able to find a 160F thermostat at Max Merritt or Kanter's.

Did you check your radiator cap for the right length and pressure?

I have seen the 6-volt electric fans advertised on the Internet, but can't recall which site. You may want to consider a flex fan first.

Good luck.
